Entry #11 - due May 2

The movie trailer is now done! We are finished filming and editing the trailer! I just have to upload it to YouTube so that I can show it to the class when I present.

We filmed the rest of the scenes on April 26, 2014. The scenes were based at a party, so there was a party scene. So we actually filmed at a party we went to. The trailer turned out pretty nice! There were a few things that could've been better, but our extras weren't cooperating that well. I don't blame them though since they were at a party and didn't want to be working on a project. But, it is 99% the way that I wanted the movie trailer to turn out.

Now all I have to worry about is the presentation. I'm not sure if I am going to show the whole trailer during the presentation. I want to, but I don't know yet.

The picture below shows the editing program that I used to edit the trailer. I used Final Cut Pro. You can see most of the clips and the music of the trailer there. (Image was from a screenshot on my computer)

Entry #10 - due April 18

Last Saturday, April 12, was the first filming day as planned. Gabby and I met with our cast at Fowler Park. We filmed about half of our trailer. I have already edited what we have filmed, and I think it is pretty good. I am really excited to finish filming and editing the trailer. I just want to see how it turns out already.

On Saturday, we filmed the couple scenes of Lena and Alex, a few nature scenes, and Hana and Lena's scene. We got done quicker than I thought we would. Also, we weren't awkward around each other when we filmed. I thought it was going to be a bit weird at first, but it was completely fine.

So far, the trailer is one minute long. After we film and edit the rest, I think the trailer will be around two minutes. Also, I chose and cut the music for the trailer, and I love it a lot.

The picture below is the editing program I am using for the trailer, Final Cut Pro. (The picture is a screenshot of my laptop screen.)

Entry #9 - due April 11

The first filming day for the Delirium movie trailer is this Saturday, April 12. We will be filming most of the scenes at Fowler Park, and also use the surrounding areas to film. During the first day of filming, we will just have the main cast be there. The main cast includes Sierra Choyce, David Medina, and Casey Lloyd. Our second filming day will be during spring break and will include many extras for the party scene. We need extras to be the regulators, couples, and people at the party. We are planning to film the party scene at Fowler Park during the night time.

I am really excited to start filming and I just hope that the trailer turns out really great. I'm honestly excited to edit the trailer the most. I can't wait to see how it all turns out.

I've also started working on the word slides of the trailer, and I think it looks great!

Below is a picture of part of the script that I highlighted for the cast to know their lines for when we start filming on Saturday. This picture was taken on my phone.

Entry #8 - due April 4

The first filming day is on April 12, as I mentioned in the last blog entry. We are finished with the script, so there is not really anything to do until we start filming. Gabby and I are going to meet up with the David, Sierra, and Casey on that Saturday at 2 PM. We are going to film at Fowler Park. We are filming here because there is a big open space of grass, and we need an area like that for our trailer.

As for what we are going to bring to the park with us, I am going to bring my tripod, camera, and laptop. Gabby is also going to bring her camera just in case.

As for costumes, we aren't going to be very strict about it. However, we would like David to bring 2-3 outfits for his character, Alex. And the same for Sierra for her character, Lena. We want Casey to bring 2 outfits for her character Hana. Then, for the regulators, we would like them to wear grey tops, blank pants, and black shoes. For the people in the party scene, anything is fine.

The picture below is just of something that I worked on in class during 20% time last Friday. I was planning out the scenes and filming details.
